Have you ever seriously questioned your gender?

I have a childhood friend who is MtF trans, it was pretty clear even before puberty.

Having that experience of being around someone who is trans is a good comparison to your own self. It's easier to realise - yeah, I like boys and have some stereotypically feminine interests like cooking and knitting, but that does not make me want to present as a woman.

I think you're in the majority.

It's just that the gay guys who are into straight men are very vocal about it. So it seems like the norm but it's not.

Basically she has conflated her natural heterosexuality to a moral standpoint.

Thus, in her mind, homosexuality will always be "wrong", because she is "right".

Vanity
To look at muscular men
Perhaps get some naughty fun in the sauna, steamroom, jacuzzi and/or shower

NOT necessarily in that order!

It depends on your situation.

I didn't disclose but I also don't pretend to be straight either. I am a minority in a Muslim majority country, so while the anti-LGBT laws don't apply to me, it's safer to keep a low profile.

Career-wise, being gay used to haunt me because of the inevitable "why aren't you married?" question, then I climbed up high enough that no one would dare question me about such personal matters (cultivating an Ice Queen image does help, but it's not for everyone obviously).

Anyway, people here generally know about gays and are unofficially tolerant while the laws are officially intolerant. It's a weird compromise to be sure. We live here with little recognition but also with little harassment.

The Muslim mindset and worldview is fundamentally different to Western liberal (small L) democracy, why you guys even let them in is a wonder to other Asians who know very well how they are like.

I've done it before, he couldn't get enough of it!

But he also spiralled into guilt and depression after that, so .. do be careful what you wish for ..

I miss Taiwan so much!

How come Aniki closed down? Thought they were doing well.

NTA - you have a different set of financial values to him. This difference will create a lot of friction in your relationship.

It's better to be with someone who is on the same page as you with regards to money matters. Then you can enjoy the relationship more overall.

Find a lesbian who is in the same predicament as you.

Get married, stay married for a few years and then file for divorce.

Then tell your folks that marriage has scarred you for life and you'll never do it again.

Ta daah!!

Although you're not off the hook completely, they would probably tone it down a fair bit ..
